Chapter 306: Storm Giant Eagle
Chapter 306: Storm Giant Eagle
Time passed quickly, with four days flying by in the blink of an eye.
At the top floor of the Dragon Spine Shop building.
"Your Highness, do you need us to assign a security team from the shop?"
Song Yufeng's words were not explicit, but they subtly indicated that the Man Feng Squad was not weak and that precautions should be taken just in case.
In response, Song Chi gently shook his head.
"No need, I have my own arrangements!"
He refused for two reasons: first, he had full confidence in the Sky Dome and himself; second, he had already made preparations. Not only had he set up a second spatial anchor point in the Sky Rush Valley, but "Wang Zhen" and his ship, the Howling Wolf and Roaring Tiger, were currently on the rooftop of the Sky Dome.
A Fourth-Rank Flame Torch Captain, although currently a bit watered down, could still crush the Man Feng Squad with just a single Zelusui ship, not to mention the Sky Dome itself. If the Man Feng Squad dared to make any moves, they would be punished in no time.
"Today, I came to ask you to help me purchase Star Sea Relics from the market in Holy Star City that cannot be converted into ship components. Regardless of their quality, as long as they are within a reasonable market price, try to buy them, and the higher the quality, the better."
Hearing Song Chi's words, Song Yufeng blinked, somewhat puzzled, but he still nodded vigorously.
"Your Highness can rest assured..."
He wanted to say more, but the Flame Seed Ancestral Aperture on Song Chi's forehead already glowed, and then three particularly brilliant lights emerged from it.
When he saw the items in these three lights, even though Song Yufeng had been the deputy manager of the Dragon Spine Shop's Holy Star main store for many years, he could not help but show deep astonishment in his eyes.
Because these three lights contained not Star Sea Relics or ship components, but Floating Land Essences, each in an extremely large quantity.
"Seventy million strands of Zero Tier Floating Land Essence, twenty million strands of First Tier Floating Land Essence, and one million strands of Second Tier Floating Land Essence. These are the initial funds for the purchase. If you finish the acquisition, notify me!"
After hearing Song Chi's explanation, Song Yufeng was even more shocked.
"Such a terrifying amount of Floating Land Essence, and this is just the initial funds? What exactly does this Seventh Highness want to acquire?"
Just by normal exchange rates, the value of these essences exceeds ten thousand strands of Fourth Tier Floating Land Essence.
What does this mean? In the family achievement tower, one strand of Fourth Tier Floating Land Essence requires two gold achievement points. Ten thousand strands would be over twenty thousand gold achievement points, enough to exchange for twenty ordinary red components.
If converted into high-quality, non-convertible ship components of the same tier, it could purchase more than forty, and possibly fifty if the price is pushed down.
Thinking of this, Song Yufeng had a new understanding of Song Chi's resources.
Of course, this is just a normal calculation. In reality, it is very difficult to exchange low-tier Floating Land Essences for high-tier ones, let alone high-tier components like Orange Glory or Red Epic.
Although he did not know what the Seventh Highness intended to do with so many non-convertible Star Sea Relics, he quickly agreed, adhering to the principle of asking less and doing more.
Song Chi was unaware of Song Yufeng's brief emotional changes. His thoughts were very simple.
The market in Holy Star City was astonishing, with an endless flow of Star Sea Relics every day. He was also troubled by how to spend the low-tier Floating Land Essences in his possession. Not taking this opportunity to make large purchases would be a waste of a great opportunity.
Initially, Song Chi planned to wait until his return and have Wang Zhen acquire the items, but considering the efficiency of a single person could never match that of a giant like the Dragon Spine Shop, he decided to entrust this task to Song Yufeng to ensure the acquisition of as many Star Sea Relics as possible.
Before leaving, he added one last instruction.
"If possible, prioritize the acquisition of high-quality Star Sea Relics!"
...
On the rooftop of the Dragon Spine Shop, the Sky Dome rose into the sky without any cover, the warship enveloped in a five-color light shield, slowly disappearing into the clouds under the gaze of countless people in Holy Star City.
The news of his joint operation with the Man Feng Squad was not a secret; the upper echelons could easily find out. Hiding it would only make him look petty.
As a result, the entire Holy Star City was instantly stirred up.
"Quick, I want to know this person's exact whereabouts within a day!"
"Find out where the Seventh of the Song Clan has gone!"
"Man Feng Squad? Level 4 Storm Continent? Follow this lead and try to determine the exact combat power of this Seventh Highness's flagship!"
...
In the depths of the clouds, the Sky Dome and the Man Feng Squad's captain's "Wind Savage" successfully met, along with two escort ships specifically for subsequent relay.
According to the agreed exploration time, this trip to the Storm Continent would not exceed twenty days.
Initially, the Man Feng Squad planned to schedule it for over a month, but considering it would conflict with An Se Wei's birthday banquet, Song Chi shortened it to twenty days.
"Seventh Highness Song, are you ready?"
Three light bands from the Wind Savage tightly connected the four warships. The Wind Savage then initiated the alien domain deployment, followed by the Sky Dome and the two escort ships.
Buzz, buzz, buzz!
In the intense hum, the four warships almost simultaneously vanished into the mist.
In the dark expanse of the alien star sea, outside a Star Sea Floating Land filled with strange storms, the four warships appeared out of nowhere.
With his Guidance Technique now at the Third Tier, Song Chi's physical condition was far from ordinary. Although he still experienced side effects from the long-distance deployment, he could recover almost instantly.
Looking through the warship's projection screen, when the giant floating land covered in endless thunderstorms and hurricanes came into view, despite having heard about it, a hint of surprise still flickered in Song Chi's eyes.
In his past Flame Torch higher education, he had heard multiple times about Star Sea Floating Lands with special weather phenomena. These lands were said to produce unique resources of corresponding attributes.
Additionally, during his twenty years as a Flame Torch Captain, he had not only heard about such special Star Sea Floating Lands, such as the Fire Elemental World where Fire Elemental Life existed, which was also a "Fire-Attribute Weather" Star Sea Floating Land. However, this was the first time he had seen one with his own eyes.
As for the previous Yellow Sand Floating Land, although it had sandstorms, it did not count as a special weather floating land because it was not naturally formed but had become that way after being ravaged by large numbers of insectoids.
Beep, beep, beep!
Connecting with the Wind Savage, it quickly sent over a partial map of the Storm Continent.
This was not to guard against Song Chi, but because the Man Feng Squad had only discovered the Storm Continent about ten years ago and had not yet mapped out the entire continent in detail.
On the other side, the hatches of two escort ships opened, and nearly ten cruiser captains leaped out. Together with the Sky Dome and the Wind Savage, they made up a total of nine cruisers.
These nine individuals would be the main combat force facing the Storm Giant Eagle clan.
Inside the Sky Dome, Song Chi remained silent, waiting for Shi Man's arrangements.
The opposing team had visited the Storm Continent multiple times and had engaged in battles with the Storm Giant Eagle clan on several occasions. He believed they had a detailed and well-thought-out plan. As a newcomer assisting in the battle, it was best for him to passively accept the arrangements.
Of course, this referred to reasonable arrangements. If the other side completely disregarded the Sky Dome's situation, Song Chi would oppose it immediately.
"Seventh Highness Song, we will activate a special group concealment component next. Pay attention and don't resist it!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Song Chi felt an inexplicable energy suddenly envelop the entire Sky Dome. Then, a notification from the Abnormal Status Purifier component sounded in his ear.
"Detected a special additional state, suspected to be a concealment enhancement. Do you want to purify it?"
A group concealment component that could cover nearly ten cruisers was clearly not an ordinary blue component; it was at least a purple component enhanced to Third Rank or higher.
However, the Abnormal Status Purifier was also quite formidable now. After a quality upgrade, its effects were even more astonishing. If Song Chi wanted, the Sky Dome could break free from this group concealment state at any time.
However, although the Sky Dome had a purple-quality Void Membrane that was sufficient for concealment, Song Chi did not actively leave the fleet. The Void Membrane was only just reinforced to Fourth Rank, so an extra layer of concealment was always better.
Under the effect of the group concealment, the nine cruisers swiftly descended, quickly disappearing into the floating land below, which was filled with thunderstorms and hurricanes.
On this Level 4 floating land, thunderstorms and hurricanes were ubiquitous, so the nine warships could not effectively avoid them and had to push through the harsh environment.
Buzz, buzz, buzz!
Song Chi could feel the Sky Dome’s hull trembling, struggling to stabilize under the terrifying hurricanes. Even the shield value of the Divine Realm Five Elements Celestial Energy Shield on the hull’s surface was slowly decreasing. However, after triggering the "Neutron Star Core Pulse" feature, it quickly replenished.
Fortunately, all the ships in the fleet were cruisers, which were still capable of maintaining steady progress in such harsh conditions.
Led by the Wind Savage, the nine warships flew over several hundred thousand kilometers. Suddenly, a voice rang out in the fleet's magnetic wave communication group chat. It was a common Third Rank captain from the Man Feng squad giving a warning.
"Boss, the tracking mark shows that the Storm Giant Eagle clan has moved again. We need to go left, about a million kilometers!"
Due to the extreme storm weather interference, the range of tracking components was greatly affected, so they only just managed to track the specific location of the target clan.
...
Two days later, the fleet, despite rushing, finally arrived at the target area.
There was no way around it; there were too many hurricane eyes on the continent, and the cruisers could not advance too quickly, which is why it took two days.
Upon reaching the vicinity of the target clan, the radar on the Sky Dome showed that the Fourth Rank Storm Giant Eagle was not among the clan, seemingly out hunting.
Song Chi thought this was a stroke of good luck, the best opportunity to make a move.
"That Fourth Rank male Storm Giant Eagle is out. Let's wait for a while, and be careful to avoid early exposure!"
Shi Man's sudden words filled Song Chi's eyes with confusion.
Wasn't this the perfect opportunity? Why wait?
Seemingly seeing the confusion in his eyes, Shi Man quickly explained:
"Seventh Highness Song, the male Storm Giant Eagle has a special connection with the female eagles in the clan. Once it is sealed, the Fourth Rank male eagle will immediately sense it and summon its companions."
"There are many Storm Giant Eagles on this Storm Continent. Two years ago, this male eagle summoned eight other Fourth Rank Storm Giant Eagles, and we lost two cruisers in that encounter."
Song Chi fell silent, unsure of what to say.
Eight Fourth Rank Storm Giant Eagles, plus the origin rules of the Level 4 floating land, even the Sky Dome would struggle to handle it.
The group waited for three more days. When the Fourth Rank male Storm Giant Eagle returned, the nine cruisers, which had been fully prepared, immediately took action.
The first to move was the Wind Savage. The sealing component on its warship was the main means to deal with the Fourth Rank Storm Giant Eagle.
As the component activated, Song Chi noticed that a thousand miles of surrounding area were sealed by a special spherical spatial barrier. This reminded him of the "Star Projection Screen" component on his grandfather's flagship, the Furious Battle Lion.
That orange component had a very similar feature.
"Chirp, chirp, chirp!"
Before he could think further, sharp eagle cries sounded from the distant sky.
"Seventh Highness Song, our team can spare two cruisers to assist you. Please..."
In the warship communication group chat, Song Chi interrupted Shi Man before he could finish.
"No need. You focus on obtaining the Storm Cloud Mother. I will handle this male eagle!"
With that, the Sky Dome, shimmering with five-colored radiance, shot up into the sky, heading straight for the Fourth Rank Storm Giant Eagle.
Within the shielded space, the thunderstorms and hurricanes had been significantly weakened. Without their influence, even with the Level 4 floating land rules, Song Chi had enough confidence to deal with the situation.
After all, he only needed to hold the eagle back, not kill it.
Honestly, killing this Fourth Rank peak Storm Giant Eagle was not too difficult for the Sky Dome.
Although the floating land origin rules boosted its combat power to Fourth Rank peak, the wind law it controlled was still at the normal Fourth Rank level. Having only life energy, it posed no significant threat to the Sky Dome.
However, this would likely require using the Bodhimanda Meditation Seal "Neutron Star Fission" or the mythic mech form, or else a prolonged battle. Song Chi, who did not want to reveal his trump cards, clearly had no such intention.
It was known that the news of his upcoming exploration of an alien star domain with the "Man Feng" squad had already spread among many top-tier forces. He and Song Yufeng could not leak this information, so the problem must lie with the Man Feng squad.
One thing leads to another. If he revealed his trump cards here, it might immediately appear in the records of other forces in the principality upon their return, which Song Chi absolutely did not want to see.
